Panthera Africa Wines (PAWs)
Award-winning Creation Wines
Star bright and subtly green with inviting aromas of guava, passion fruit and Cape gooseberry. Whiffs of grapefruit and peach stone add to the attraction. On the palate the wine rewards with lovely crisp acidity and a hint of salty minerals. R140
Deep, ripe mulberry coloured with vivid flashes of violet – truly inviting. The complex nose tempts with a medley of dark berries and spice (especially pepper and clove) which are echoed on the plush palate. A beautifully structured wine with hints of dark chocolate and a whisper of smoke on the lingering aftertaste. R140

Cuddle Me Kill Me
A true account of South Africa’s captive lion breeding and canned hunting industry
By Richard Peirce
Canned lion hunting sprang to the world’s attention with the 2015 launch of the documentary, Blood Lions. is movie blew the cover o a brutal industry that has burgeoned in the last decade or so, operating largely under the radar of public concern.
In Cuddle Me Kill Me, veteran wildlife campaigner Richard Peirce reveals horrifying facts about the industry.
- The true story of two male lions rescued from breeding farms
- The exploitation and misery of these apex predators when they are bred in captivity
- How young cubs are removed from their mothers mere hours after birth
- How they are first used for petting by an adoring (and paying) public
- Their subsequent use for ‘walking with lions’ tourism
- And how, in the final stage of exploitation, they are served up in fenced enclosures for execution by canned hunters – or simply shot by breeders for the value of their carcass, a prized product in the East.
Well researched by Peirce with the help of an undercover agent, and illustrated with photos taken along the way, this is a disturbing and passionate plea to end commercial captive lion breeding and the repurposing of wildlife to cater for human greed.
